Maximum limit of submissions
The ICAIIT Committee has established a maximum limit of 4 submissions per author (including coauthored papers). Failure to comply with this requirement can result in papers not being reviewed (i.e. fourth and further papers based on date and time of submission).

Language
English is the language of the conference and of all submissions.

Originality
Submissions to ICAIIT must be original; submissions cannot have been published or accepted in a journal or conference proceedings, nor presented at another conference. Further, submissions must not be currently under consideration for publication or presentation elsewhere. Completed papers should have completed analyses and documentation of results.

Review Criteria for Papers:
    Topic is relevant to a Conference theme
    Objectives are clear and well-described
    Paper is written clearly
    Paper will draw an audience
    Paper is well organized and flows logically
    Literature review is appropriate
    Methodology is appropriate (if relevant)
    Analyses are appropriate (if relevant)
    Evidence supports authors' arguments (if relevant)
    Paper makes a useful contribution

Template/formatting
All submissions must be in Microsoft Word .DOC or LaTex format and must use the submission template (Word, LaTex). Instructions for using the template and formatting the submission are provided in the ICAIIT template document itself. Submissions should consist of only one file containing text, figures, tables and references. Files submitted in other word processing formats or that do not use this template will not be considered for review.

Length Requirements
Completed research papers must not exceed ten (10) single-spaced pages and must conform to the ICAIIT submission template. The 10 pages must include all text, figures, tables, and appendices. The cover page, abstract, keywords, and references are also included in this page count. Submissions with less than 4 pages or more than 10 pages will be automatically rejected.

Anonymize Completed Papers for Blind Review
Authors name(s) should not appear in the body of the paper (including the abstract). Eliminate references to your institutions, your sponsors, your unpublished work and your published work if these references will identify any author.

Remove author and institution information from document properties. To do this in Word 2010 click the File tab, and then click Info. Under Prepare for Sharing, click Check for Issues, and then click Inspect Document. In the Document Inspector dialog box, select the check boxes to choose the types of hidden content that you want to be inspected. In the next dialog box you can choose which information to remove. For older versions of MS-Word, click on Tools>>Options and then click on the Security tab. Under Privacy Options, select "Remove personal information from file properties on save".
